Gabriella Calchi Novati - MA, MPhil, PhD
Psychoanalyst, Accredited CGJIZ - IAAP
Psychoanalysis, Dreamwork, Sandplay
I am a psychoanalyst and cultural philosopher, writer, lecturer and keynote speaker at international institutions, conferences and symposia. I am a member of the faculty both at CG Jung Institute Zurich and at the Romanian Training in Analytical Psychotherapy. I am also member of SABOF (Società di Analisi Biografica a Orientamento Filosofico).
My academic explorations and approach to psychoanalysis are inextricably linked. By working with and through art, I engage with the powerful effects that non-verbal expressions have on those who have encountered trauma in their lives, and the possibilities that personal creativity have for growth and realisation of the self.
I have been working in and through Jungian analysis for more than 20 years, and specialise in both verbal and non-verbal techniques. My private office is located in the 8008 Seefeld district of Zürich, but I also see clients from around the world via tele-therapy (Zoom, Skype, WhatsApp, Facetime, etc.).
Please note that I work by appointment only, no walk - ins.
Upcoming events and lectures: During the Summer Semester 2025 I will be teaching following lectures and seminars at CG Jung Institute:
18th June 2025: Can Psychoanalysis Help Us in the Current Polycrisis?
18th June 2025: Menopause: Patriarchy's Repressed Mother Complex?
19th June 2025: Times of Wars. Can we learn to practice Love as a Political Category?
